Combined methods and instrumentation for dosimetric monitoring of the large fluence hadron irradiations /
Dosimetry in the routine sense is the measurement of the absorbed dose in biological tissues and matter delivered by ionizing radiation or particle beams. Dosimetry is widely applied in the field of medical physics where it is inevitable for assessment of the radiation dose received by personnel …

Comparison of partially decoupled and combined methods of path planning and task allocation
… minimizes the total cost of the mission. Two methods are presented for doing this, the partially decoupled approach and the combined approach. After comparing two methods, the partially decoupled approach costs an average of 3.0 meters less than the combined approach, while taking an average …

The Presumption of Non-Credibility
… from an anti-carceral feminist perspective, and combined methods approach, I will demonstrate the both essential and vexatious nature of the presumption of innocence. Due-process procedures render a complainant untruthful by the natural effect of rendering an accused person honest, therefore, I …

Combined correlation induction strategies for designed simulation experiments
… This research concentrates on correlation methods of VRTs which include common random numbers, antithetic variates and control variates. The basic idea of these methods is to utilize the linear correlation either between the responses or between the response and control variates in order to …
